i m an mpc head and i want only the mpc workflow . i don t want the mpc to be a fully sequencer ..why ? there are already great daws sonar/cubase/reaper/protools ...it is a drumaschien/sampler/sequencer...


and if you talking ren vs maschine then you have to also throw push&ableton in the cage...

The guy's post is about which production unit will stay profitable not which one is best for a user. Completely different view than most take with these debates

How are you liking push?

it's all for show though, I wonder how many of these producers actually use the Ren or Studio in their workflow.. I see more amateurs making Ren/Studio vids on YouTube then the pros

I mean.. producers you see posing in pictures with the Maschine actually use it lol

Not too many pro producers will reveal their true weapons of choice or show you their true beat making process on YouTube. Way too many shameless biters on the net.

Yep, the live MPC playing is what I am talking about, in the Akai marketing video.

Well if you look at this video from the 6 minute to 8 minute mark. He answers all of your questions regarding Araab's affiliation with The Ren and why he didn't look like himself In that marketing campaign and everything.
